So this is the beginning of new a lightweigt drow harness, converted from the collar I did some time back. Made to fit an ordinary day outfit. Not made to protect much. More to be a complement to the fabrics and jewelry worn constantly by noblility.

will build in armor on the ribs later on when I get a hold on more of this leather=)


Now FOR SALE, Note me for info and prices

This looks amazing!

I've been staring at this for like an hour now trying to figure out how you got the raised up folds/pleats or whatever in the leather to stay up like that. I've been wanting to try making some leather armor pieces for a while but I don't know how to do details like that (which I would really love to learn how to do). May I ask what kind of leather you use for your work?

I didn't know chrome tanned leather could keep tooling marks. I tried using some once but it didn't keep the pattern I put on it.

Grease it alot, a day or so after most chrometanned leathers should hold atleast some impressions! I used a homemade tool to make mine so I dont know what typ of tools to recommend tho=/
